Okay, so I missed making SSG by 5 points. (yea sucks driving on and still hunting) My Question to Seniors, Peers and Subordinates is as follows:

Erb looks like this
272 PT
35/40
2 Deployments

Maxed CC
CLS
HAZ 11
LOG 73 (Supply)
Army Family Team Building lvl 1 2 3
ALC (Starts OCT 5)

Collage 12 hrs (currently in class)
SOLE Tech Cert (10 points)

Awards almost Maxed in the section
Have the Volunteer Service Metal.

So got that outta the way in a fast hurry. What I'm trying to get answered: Where can I find some more MIL Resident Courses that are like Army Family Team Building where I can go in don't have to go to my Schools NCO, I can register and just take the class. Submit the cert and Bam 4-10 points based on what ever the cert qualifies for.

2)SOLE Tech cert is cool in the way it works. 50 Bucks and all your Military training certs and they tell you yes or no and what lvl of a certification you qualify for. Does Any one know of a similar certification process that doesn't charge :out the ying yang"

Get to a range and max out your weapon qual, and work on your PT test to raise that score. Both of those will give you the 4-10 points you are looking for.

SGT If I may I would Reccomend if you havent already Getting a 348-R1 (aka TMP Liscense) I am not talking about a DA Form 348. Soldiers here in Korea are required to get a TMP license. if you have one and its been 1 year no accidents you can submit a memo for a drivers badge for a signature from your LTC.

Another Option:

Mechanics Badge;
Google ASE Certification and take the exam that comes close to vehicles you operate (I recommend Heavy Vehicles) if you pass and are certified submit to your S-1 for civilian certifications, and also submit to your motor chief with an excert of AR 600-8-22, and a nicely typed up memo for him to submit up the chain for the mechanics badge. The badge is not, according to regulation a mechanic specific award, read the regs.

Special Badge:

Again look up previously mentioned award and Submit the same memorandum qualifying you for the award (500 Hrs, or 1 yr no accidents whichever is the latter for special operating equiptment) This includes PATRIOT Systems, Generators, ect. If you have logged your Hours and had your PLL input them in the system (and had copies of your 5988Es just in case) you should have 500 Hrs in your 348E. I have and trained my fellow Soldiers on this as well.

These three memorandums are being sent up now to the LTC in my unit for review and signature its not easy but if you have been doing Command Maintenance every monday and made repairs to assigned vehicles (including -10 level) you may have the points it just means you have to show your knowledge on the subject and getting it up the chain.

The look you are giving us SSG Private RallyPoint Member, shows where fitness and rifle range can improve your total points.

I understand that scoring max on fitness is harder for some but that just means training harder to achieve that goal.

There have been some excellent suggestions from SGT Private RallyPoint Member and especially SPC(P) Micah Lavigne.

I know it can be frustrating when you are so close. but try and train harder and set yourself up for more success by maxing weapons and fitness.

I wish you all the best and ensure to keep that ERB current as DA looks at it constantly.

Sounds like a time investment to improve by 5 pushups or situps, and you're there.

If you continue on the path you are on, you'll get there from the college credits at the end of the semester.

If you are looking for next month, hit the gym. It is your best bet.
